Marie Barbera, a first-generation Italian-American, discovered her passion for art amidst her upbringing, heavily influenced by her father's craftsmanship and her own fascination with Native American culture. Despite initial reservations about appropriating Indigenous subjects, she found her artistic voice in capturing the stories and struggles of Native peoples through figurative bronze sculptures. Inspired by the strength and symbolism of Francisco Zuniga's work, she embarked on a lifelong journey of portraying Native women and their experiences, delving into their history and traditions through extensive research. Transitioning from watercolors to three-dimensional mediums, she expressed her ideas with newfound depth and authenticity. Barbera's artworks, such as "The Shield of the Crow" and "They Dance the Dance, They Chant the Chant," poignantly capture moments of resilience and cultural significance, while pieces like "Changing Woman" and "Sundance" delicately explore rites of passage and sacred ceremonies. With each creation, Barbera weaves a narrative that not only honors Native American heritage but also speaks to the universal themes of family, resilience, and tradition. Her dedication to her craft and the histories she depicts reflect her profound commitment to leaving a lasting legacy for future generations to cherish.
